Impression:  Brauereigasthof Rothenbach is the largest production brewery on the circuit and has the largest line-up of beers as well. This is their signature brew and it’s a classic Franconian lager. While perhaps less revered than their rivals on the Aufsess circuit, I found their beers all well-made and this easy quaffer was no exception.

Next beer or back to the beer list.
